Amazing food, attention, and atmosphere. I’ve come here a couple times and am never disappointed. Lots of great food for competitive pricing. Ana, the server for tonight, was wonderful and always nearby for any requests. Glad I came here tonight, and I hope others come and try this place out!

Great food and service. Ali was fantastic. We had a picada and the only complaint is that the meat was mostly cold once it arrived to te table. Other than that it was all really good. Another fact is that they include the tip, not a bad thing, but is right under the food and is not specified that's included, of you don't pay attention then you give the over 36% of the bill.

I had an amazing dining experience at this restaurant! The steak was cooked to perfection—tender, juicy, and full of flavor. The Churrasco cuts were especially impressive, each bite practically melted in my mouth. The appetizers were also fantastic, the Yuquita fries were terrific. Every dish was presented beautifully, and the flavors complemented each other so well. The service was top-notch, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. Highly recommend this place for anyone who loves a great steak and quality appetizers!

Why 4 stars? The food was amazing, the service was a bit slow but acceptable….what I truly hated? A service charge with out prior notification for a party of 4. I hate being forced to tip specially if not forewarned. Funnily enough they have a posted sign that take out orders will be subject to this. I tip for good service. Why should I tip if I received substandard service? After inquiring with the staff I was told it was company policy. I truly despise places like this. Post a sign in the entrance that all checks will have a service charge and let the customer decide if they want to subject themselves to that experience.

Great service, thanks to Claudia! The food was delicious, but the videos playing in the restaurant weren’t suitable for all audiences, especially kids. Overall, a nice experience, but the content could be more family-friendly.

"We’re regular customers at Toro Loco, but this last visit was completely out of the ordinary. Ariadna, our waitress, gave us the best service that we’ve ever had at any of the Toro Loco restaurants. Her food and dessert recommendations were excellent. You can tell she knows what she's doing. We arrived with high expectations, and we left with even higher expectations.
Magdalena PAJAK
Mostly beef dishes, meat was made great. Nice and juicy. All tasted great. Recommended this place. Just one that I didn't like was too loud and like for me waiter need impove English, mostly they speak Spanish.

We had an amazing experience at El Toro Loco, and Ariana, our waitress, made it even better! Her service was exceptional—she was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. The food was absolutely delicious, and her recommendations were spot on. It’s rare to find such a great combination of fantastic food and outstanding service. We’ll definitely be back soon! Thank you, Ariana, for making our visit so memorable!
